Dabbadrop… the ultimate lunchbox distribution system
Everyone loves a takeaway but grease, unknown ingredients and plastic is off-putting.
It was high time that a sustainable takeaway existed.
London-based Dabbadrop is couriering meals stored in reusable tiffin tins to the doors of South Londoners.
Mirroring the most ingenious feat of logistics that still exists in India today, the ultimate lunchbox distribution system.
City workers are fed by food cooked in their home by their homemaker or from restaurants, and transported to their workplace.
Rail services, bicycles and every other kind of transport are deployed by so-called dabba wallers.
The brainchild of two mums, co-founder Anshu’s heirloom family recipes from all over South Asia form the cornerstone of the rotating recipes on the menu.
Dabbadrop brings zero-waste, guilt-free, plant-based dinners weekly or fortnightly.
Receive a dabba weekly or fortnightly for a nutritious meal, delivered at ambient temperature and ice-packed.
Reheat in the oven in 30 to 40 minutes and swap the metal tupperware on the next order so nothing is wasted.
Just enter your postcode on the website to find out if they deliver to your area.
